There is a problem with GTX 1xxx cards (1660Ti in my case) running Proton 8+ for quite some time due to Nvidia driver, they’re unusable. Because of this even Experimental and GE branches are useless for me.

To be fair, Proton 7 is mostly enough. However, I cannot play one of my games after its update and it’s working fine with Proton 8 according to other people.

So, is there a workaround for this or I should wait for Nvidia’s Vulkan updates?

    Thank you for the reply!

    I just wrote the details here: https://programming.dev/comment/9284416

    What is your driver version, you might be the first person I met who doesn’t have problems. If your driver is older than 535, that’s normal though.

    I have 1660Ti and same things happens with 1060 on a different PC. Doesn’t happen with 470 series driver for example.
